A mysterious postcard arrives with no return information with the names of Anne's great grandparents and their children inscribed. While researching who could have sent the postcard, the fate of her family is revealed. It's stories like this that allow memories to stay alive and present in our lives. While this book is certainly challenging, I highly recommend reading it.
